A long long time ago when Asiana and Korean Air used to fly from JFK to ICN (GMP back then) via Anchorage, the flight landed at 4AM, took off at 5:30 and landed at Gimpo at 6:10. Horrendous flight. Thank god they fly nonstop now-but the 3:45AM arrival isn't that fun either. Although they did feed you well-I think we were served 3 or 4 meals with the stopover at ANC, I don't remember.
